- Sezane ‘Lauren’ sweater – This sweater has already become one of my favorites for autumn. I was a little concerned about yak wool being too itchy, but it’s softer than anticipated. And, it hasn’t pilled yet! The shape of the sweater is a bit oversized and fits similar to how it does in this image with the hem falling right above the hip and slight bracelet sleeves. If you want it to fit like it does in the photo above, then you’ll need to go up a size. I love it so much that I’m likely to purchase the other two colors before the season ends.
- M&S ridged small hoop earrings – I’ve been into sculptural silver jewelry this season and bought these while I was in London. They remind me of this pair by Jennifer Zeuner.
- Amazon chunky hoop earrings – These are a great way to dabble in the silver trend if you’re on the fence about moving away from gold jewelry this season. I bought the 25mm size. They look great in person and are lightweight for all-day wear.
- Madewell sling crossbody bag – You may recall that I bought this bag in straw earlier this year. It’s such a great size to hold all of your essentials (including a case for sunglasses and a backup phone charger). I wore the straw one in Barcelona when I didn’t have my DSLR in tow. Given how much use I got out of it, I bought the all-leather version in advance of our trip to London and have been using it every day since.
- Adidas ‘Samba’ sneakers – I bought these in the “wonder taupe” colorway. It’s a fantastic neutral color. I find that Adidas runs true to size.
- Gap ‘CashSoft’ crewneck sweater – While red isn’t my favorite color, I can appreciate the “unexpected red” theory for home and wardrobe. Plus, now I work at the University of Wisconsin with its red-and-white brand colors, so it’s basically workwear. The sweater runs true to size.
- Leather Hole Puncher (not pictured) – My beloved Paravel travel backpack always hung down too low on my back and I finally bought a leather hole puncher to fix that. This set has multiple hole sizes to choose from. It punched through cleanly and it looks more professional than just using an awl.
